There are several cases when you may need to reset or delete your account: if you forget your password, need to change your email address or if you want to stop using Tresorit.
Deleting your Tresorit account is a permanent action and there’s no way to reverse it. Read on if you wish to cancel your subscription and leave Tresorit for good.
📝 Note: This article is for users on individual plans, who are looking for a way to delete their account with all the stored content. If you are a Subscription owner and want to learn how to delete a user, visit this article for the details.
Avoid data loss
Make sure you transfer the ownership of your tresors to someone else. After you delete your account, syncing will stop and your content will be deleted from the cloud.
Collaborators will receive a notification indicating that they don’t have access to the tresor in the cloud anymore. However, previously synced content will be available on their computer.
📝 Note: Deleting your account will not delete the files in the tresors that were previously synced to your hard drive or to the computers of those you are collaborating with. Learn how to remote wipe data from your devices.
